    Dear Daniel

   INFORMATION RESPONSE

    DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION (SUPERSEDED PLANNING SCHEME) - DETACHED HOUSE

    71 SEAVIEW TERRACE, SUNSHINE BEACH


   Further to the Department of Environment and Resource Managements Information Request of 9
   December 2009 (and received 11 December 2009) for the abovementioned proposal we enclose
   revised proposal plans (Attachment 1) prepared by Gavin Maddock Design Studio and now respond in
   full to each of the items raised.

   •     Provide justification for the building works to be in the erosion prone area, consistent
         with this Policy (e.g. structures are temporary or relocatable).

   Response:
   While it is acknowledged that the proposal may not fully comply with the policy, it is considered that
   exceptional circumstances exist to justify approval in this instance. The subject site is the last
   undeveloped beachfront allotment along Seaview Terrace. It is only a small extent of proposed works
   for a single dwelling house that will be contained within the coastal management district, which
   provides a substantial improvement in outcome and impact over and above the adjoining lands to the
   south. As seen on plan 180_sk203 A, the lands to the immediate south of the site have houses wholly
   or largely within the coastal management district. A setback of about 110m will still be maintained
   from all works to the toe of frontal dune, representing substantial compliance with the required
   coastal setback line. These works will also be at a level of at least 23m higher than the toe of frontal
   dune. The location and site characteristics are not considered a high risk erosion prone area. As
   required by the policy with allowable works, the proposed works do not extend any further seaward
   than the existing building alignment for the neighbouring properties. Section 7 of the Structural
   Design Concept Report in Attachment 2 provides specific reference to the works. As the site is the
   last undeveloped allotment in this locality, approval of works within the coastal management district
   will not set any precedent.

   •     Drawing number 180 sk103 of development application (SCRC application number
         2008/169) identifies a line described as the "natural outline of human habitat area".
         Provide justification/ methodology for arriving at this outline (i.e. line is not
         representative of an outline of existing permanent / non-expendable private property,
         infrastructure and buildings).
